    what socks you all wear, got my free pair of hargreaves with my June issue of cycling plus, average quality bit small, and it got me thinking what everyone wears, I bought some from lidl the cheap food shop they where 2.50 a pair and are the best cycling socks I have, metatarsal support, slight padding on the ankle and tougher parts on the tour and heel, for the money unbelievable value. they even have a R and L to tell you what foot to put them on lol. the top price ones of about twenty quid don’t look as good.

    recommendations?

    If you live in the heat like me, only 1 sock cuts it..

    Prendas High Summer Carbon socks. I have Assos/ Castelli/ Giordana and De-feet socks as well, but have now got 6 pairs of the Prendas, without a doubt the best hot weather sock and the only ones I wear during my summer

    Never got on with any free socks from mags, they always go in the bin (too nylony feel). I mostly use Endura coolmax socks over summer as they’re cheap and seem comfy enough to me. I have a couple of pairs of fancier socks (Assos etc.) but once out riding I can’t tell the difference. Winter socks are different, prepared to spend more money on merino and low volume thermal ones (although the Assos fuguspeer ones I spent the most on are rubbish)

    I have some aldi and some lidl ones, both of which are good. DeFeet socks are about 6-7 pound per pair, and are good to, I have a pair of their BikePure ones I use for racing.
